It's easy to spread, covers a LOT of ground, and is perfect for growing new grass on new topsoil. Fresh smelling straw, cut to manageable pieces, and does the trick. This is actually the third bag I've purchased and each time, perfect.
We tilled and seeded a very large section of our backyard (1000 sq ft) and needed something to make sure the seed stayed where we spread it and hopefully keep things moist since we are planting in the spring and need it to grow and establish before the heat of summer comes. I didn't want to get a bale of hay since it has weeds, so I did research and found this product. I really liked the idea that it had a 'tack' to it.
I have to say, when we were spreading this straw, I had some doubts. The straw is very light and in smaller pieces. It's incredibly easy to spread by hand. You do have to be sure you don't drop it in piles because of how light it is. It took us about 15 or 20 minutes to get it on. That was a week ago. We've had a couple of storms with some wind and everything is still in place. The tack it has on it isn't a heavy one so the straw can be moved if you need to do some fixing in places. All in all I'm very happy.
I bought two bales for my less than 700 sf new lawn - but ended up not needing the second bag - there was plenty in the one small bag. But the second bag is still sealed -- I'm sure I could use it for something else without it 'going bad' - as an open bale of straw would. So, overall, even though a bit pricey - the convenience made it worth it. Great idea!
Oh - and the lawn turned out great - so it worked keeping the birds, wind and rain from taking the seeds.

As for the weed suppressing qualities, i am satisfied. The common weeds that normally pop up are totally suppressed where the mulch is thick enough. The only thing that comes up is this strange grass that seems to be abnormally strong as I've seen it come up out of this much in areas that are as much as 3 inches thick. I can hardly call that a failure of the product, this grass is just that strong.
If you are cursed with sandy soil, i can't recommend this enough.
